In The Kitchen.

ORANGE CUPS For LITTLE LUN-
CHEoNs.- Sweeten a quart of milk to
taste, add to it the juice and grated
rind of four oranges. Thicker it
when it begins to boil with table
spoonful of corn starch mixed smooth
with water. As it comes from the fire
add the beaten yolks of three or
four eggs, mix smooth and pour out
to cool in lemonade glasses, or pretty
custard cups. Hand with these can
died citron or peach preserves. 1t
is a great mistake to put the white of
eggs in custards. 1t makes them
tough, and they had better be saved
up for other things, lady cake, white
mountain cake, clearing coffe etc.
MoLAssEs POUND CAKE.-Warm
a tablespoonful of butter until it can
be mixed readily with half pint of
molasses stir with butter and mo-
lasses an even teaspoonful each of
ground cloves, cinnamon and ginger !:
dissolve a teaspoonful of baking soda
in half pint of boiling water !;
quickly add it to the molasses then.
as quickly as possible sift and mix
in half a pound of flour; beat the
cake batter smooth, put it at once
into pan lined with a buttered pa
per, and bake the cake in a moderate
oven until broom straw run through
it can be withdrawn dry.
CARE OF IRON ARE.-New iron
ware is often rusty and spoils what
ever is cooked in it. To remove
this, pack as much hay as the kettle
will hold, fill up with water and boil
all day. If the articles are pans or
shallow utensils, boil all in the
clothes boiler. Two or three such
bOilings will remove the most Obsti-
nate rust. Often the spots may be
secured off with sapolio.
TOMATO SOUP.-TO one quart of
boiling water add one quart of toma-
toes: boil again and put in one tea
spoonful of soda as soon as it has
ceased foaming, add one pint of
milk, four rolled crackers, butter,
pepper and salt, and serve very hot
A NUTRITIOUS BRoTH.-A quarter
of teaspoonful of beef extract, the
yolk of an egg beaten up, a cup of
boiling water, little salt added,
and served with a slice of hot toast,
makes a palatable and nutritious
luncheon, an excellent repast for in
valids,

MY Dog Jack.

One of the officers of the post had
ten or a dozen greyhounds. Notwith-
standing its size, the greyhound,
when alone is an arrant coward, I'M
less cornered: then it becomes dan
gerous antagonist.
Jack was coward, too, but he
knew by instinct that single grey
hound was even a greater coward
than himself and when one of the
hounds would stroll along by the
house. it was ludicrous to see the lit
tie scamp rush out quivering with eX-
citment, and barking as if he would
eat Mr.. Greyhound. Invariably, the
greyhound would turn tail and run
Jack would follow few steps and
then return with a look III his face
which plainly said, Ibid you ever see
such a coward!'
But one day Jack was taking a
walk with me on the battle-ground
down toward the lake, and some dis
lance from the house. All at once the
whole pack of hounds, as if urged by
one common impulse to get even with
him for the indignities he had heap
ed upon them singly, started i'll
body for Jack At first he did not
notice them. but when he did, instead
of coming to me for protection he
turned and struck ont for home in
the usual manner, with his tail very
much between his legs and with the
accompaniment of bowls. How he
did run He was running this time
for his life. and he knew it. He
looked like a tiny yellow speck as he
scampered toward the house. The
pack of hounds keeping well togeth-
er, gained at every jump. Twice l
thought they had him, and half turn
ed away my head but. no he doub-
led on them and fairly flew in another
direction. The hounds could not
turn as quickly as he could, and fell
over one another in their attempt to
do so. As Jack reached the terrace
in front of the quaters, he flew into
the house through the open door,
safe The door was closed by my
wife-Who had been watching the
desperate race-just as the hounds
met in body over a boys hat that
was living upon the grass before the
door. In about two seconds there was
nothing left of that hat; it was torn
into ribbons before they found out it
wasn't Jack. after all But from that
time, Jack was not on speaking terms
with any of those hounds.-St, Mich

Queer Coasting In Maderia

There is church at Funchal, near
" 1000 feet above the level of the
sea. George determined TO visit 1t
the next time he was allowed to go
ashore. Accompanied by his friend,
ne went to stable to hire horses to
ride up the hill. After some delay IN
making a bargain, they were seated
in their saddles. Each horse was at
tended by 'bUTTjquierjO. or horse
boy. and as soon as they were ready
each buYriqueiro seized the tail of his
horse, and shouted a little Portu-
ouese command. Away they went
at a brisk pace, the boys following.
Coming to a comparatively level place
in the road, they struck into run,
irving to see if they could shake
these bows off. They did not sue
coed. for the little fellows chung to
the horses tails, and never thought
of letting 90 or giving it up. 1t was
nearly three miles to the church by
the wav they went, and in some
places the road was so steep that
there were steps cut for the horses to
place their feet. The horses walked
up very rapidly, and in little more
than half an hour were at the church.
They sent their horses back to the
stables. for they were to go down in
n quite different way. The view from
the church steps comprises all the
town. the harbor, and the broad At
lantic.
But George was too much excited |
at the thought of descending the hill |
TO care much about the view, and he |
hurried his friend to the sledge-stand |
near by. Here he selected his sledge |
which is made of willow, stOutly |
braced and placed on runners. With |
one attendent on each side and one
behind, every one holding on with a
Ieathern thong in his hand, the sledge |
was started. They dashed down the |
steep way as a boy slides downhill in
winter, and the skillful attendants
guided the sledge, no matter how
fast it went, with deXterity that has
often surprised older and more ex-
perienced travellers than George.
Down they went with fearful rapidity
turning corners without upsetting,
but with long slides to leeward, al
ways going on, with many an excla-
nation from G gorge, who could not feel
quite safe while flying at so furious a
rate. In nine minutes they were at
the foot of the hill, more than two
miles from the church.
George thought that this beat all
the sliding downhill that he had ever
imagined, and he would gladly have
walked back for the sake of another
slide if he could have found any one
to 90 with him.-.St Nicholas.

Buy With Your Eyes Open

Parties intending purchasing sill
ver-plated ware, should not forget
the fact that it is almost impossible
to tell by the general appearance of
the articles whether they are heavily
plated or not. The only reliable
evidence the purchaser can depend
on is the impress, or Trademark of
the manufacturer and care should
be taken to select only those of
standard and well-known makers.
First-class goods, if observed care
fully, will show that they are fin
ished in a workmanlike manner, all
parts nicely fitted and joined to-
gether, an article of beauty and dur
ability combined. Such goods will
afford the purchaser every salts
faction. But if the article is badly
soldered, and the ornamental parts
coarse and blurred, or the chasing
and engraving badly done, do not
purchase at any price. Such articles
will wear only a short time, and
while used will prove injurious to
health. There are too many I'M
principled dealers in Electro-plate,
and peddlers of the same, who are
constantly palming off on the unsus-
pecting, goods that are made of the
cheapest kinds of metals, and very
lightly plated. Avoid all such deal
ers, and when the fact is ascertained,
demand your money back, and pub
fish such a dealer among all your
friends.

Ornamental Work.

LEAF PRINTING.-After warming
the leaf between the hands, apply
printing ink by means of small
leather ball containing cotton or
some soft substance, or with the end
of the finger. The leather ball and
| the finger when used for that pur-
pose !, after the ink is applied to it,
should be pressed several times on
a piece of leather or some smooth
surface before each application to the
leaf that the ink may be smoothly
and evenly applied. After the under
surface of the leaf has been sutfi
GENTLY linked, apply it to the paper
where YOU wish the impression; and,
after covering it with a slip of pa
per, use the hand or roller to press
upon it.
SHAVING TABLETS pretty
shaving tablets can be made by TAX
ing two pieces of cardboard cut
nearly square, covered on the out
side with crinkled paper, lined with
any contrasting color, filled with
fancy colored papers, which can be
pulled out for use as they are want
ed, then filed again; a handle of
pleated paper fastened at the top
lln
outside.
PLAQUES OF WOOD.-Most of the
pretty PLAQUES of wood so much
used to paint on have no rings on
the back, and consequently cannot
be hung on the wall. To remedy
get a curtain ring through this put
loop of ribbon or thin cloth, and
glue this loop to the back of the
PLAGUE. Be sure to have it exactly |
in the centre, and do not try to hang
up until it is perfectly dry.
A gilded palm-leaf fan with a
pocket or bag of silk, velvet, or
plush attached to it, makes an odd |
but pretty receptacle for photo
graphs, cards or fancy work.
Take a common straw cuff and |
work upon it with worsted some
simple cluster of flowers, daisies,
and forget-me-nots, then by fitting
into the smaller end piece of paste
board YOU have completed a neat
and pretty vase for bouquet of
dried grasses.

A Lesson in Etiquette.

Engage in argument with every
person YOU meet.
If man has glass eye, a wood
en- leg, or wig, always refer to it.
Never listen to other persons, for
if you do you may forget what you
are going to say yourself.
If with strangers, always use pro-
fame and vulgar words. You will be
surprised how they will change their
estimate of you.
When a man is talking, let your
eyes and mind wander about the
room, and when he gets through, ask
him to repeat what he said.
Never talk in a mild, gentle and
musical voice, but toot up high and
loud. Drown other peoples voices
if you can't drown their ideas.
If a person makes a mistake in
grammar, or calls a word wrong,
always correct him, especially if
there are several persons around to
hear.
Always talk of your private, per-
sonal and family matters while con-
versing with strangers. They like
to listen to long accounts of how you
had the rheumatism.
Always make fun of the locality
where you are staying. If you can't
do that, ridicule or abuse some of
the leading citizens. A son or
daughter may be present, and they
will like to hear you ridicule their
old father.

Somth America.

Our Consul. General at Buenos Ayres,
B. w. Hanna, believes that the
South American States are probably just
now the most inviting field for the uses
of capital in the world. From the Ca.
ribbean Sea to the EXTREMIST hooks of
Terra del Fuego, the seekers of money
investment can hardly go astray. Ger.
mans, Epglishmen, Frenchmen, Italians
and Belgians are working the field in
dustriously. South America now has
nearly ~, 1000 miles of railway and about
80, 600 miles of telegraph. The Argen.
tine Republic, which leads in modern
improvements. has 4974 miles, Brazil
coming next with 3S07 miles. The Ar
gentne Republic ll,7S9 miles of tele.
graph line. while Chill has 5S95 miles,
and Brazil $40 miles. The present
Congress of the Republic has chartered
two new transcontinental railway COM
panies which are to build lines 1900 and
l500niles long re spectively. English capi.
talists are to build both these roads upon
an agreed basis of cost per mile, the
Government guaranteeing per cent. on
the investment for twenty years. Its
exports exceed S9l, 900 600 in annual
value, and its exports are S95, 900, 900.
Brazilian exports amount to SIS, 300, 600
and the imports are worth $50, 600, 900.
Chill is third in foreign commerce, i'm
porting $50, ,O0O,O 900 worth, and export
ing S4S, 600, 600 worth of commodities.
Uruguay, though very small state, has
exports reaching S25, 900, 900 in value,
and imports to the amount OF 20,000,-
900. South America is just beginning
to be developed, and already sells $780,
900, 900 worth of produce annually to
the rest of the world, and buys $780,
900, 600 worth. The time has come. he
thinks, when the United States should
make systematic effort to build up
trade with the South American Repub-
lies. - Bankers Monthly.

A Complaint.

Thomas Leary, of Monrovia, sends in
a complaint which seems to be well
founded. He says that the charge for a
round trip ticket on the San Gabriel
Valley road from Monrovia to Pasadena
is seventy cents, while for round trip
ticket from Pasadena to Los Angeles the
charge is only fifty cents, the distance
being the same. He says that in Mon
rovia the agent will not sell tickets tie
Pasadena. but passengers have to pay
fare to the conductor, and he charges
thirty.five cents each way. Leary seems
to think that this is discrimina tion
against Monrovia but sit looks as If it
were discrimination against Pasadena.
The Monrovians can keep right ON to
Los Angeles.
